sharon epperson has more on ways to pay for an education tax-free in our "education nation" report. >> it is a big issue. the clock is ticking on tax rules that could change on january 1, 2013, impacting the way you can contribute to a child's college education. now, whatever the outcome on the tax laws, there are a few ways to lock in a tax benefit on gifts now. under the current law the amount of money you can give away over your lifetime without getting hit with taxes is a little over $5 million. you can take advantage of this exemption by creating a trust that will ensure that you would avoid a huge tax if the tax laws changed. now, when this current tax law expires, that 5 million plus dollar exemption is set to fall to $1 million in the new year. whether the current tax laws change or stay the same, you can always make an annual gift of up to $13,000 to a child. couples can give a combined gift totaling $26,000 tax-free. these annual income tax rules stay the same no matter what happens in the new year. you can make a lump sum of five years' of annual gifts in a single year, up
